The Christian County Board met on Tuesday evening to welcome a new member, hear from committees, and review new business at their July monthly meeting. The board first recognized new member Marsha Miles from District 4.  Miles is from Pana and says that she is excited to be on the board.

Under Highway, building, and grounds, the board approved construction engineering for Rosamond Bridge, asphalt from Louis Marsch, and got an update on carpet installation for the county boardroom, which is currently under construction.  Under executive, personnel, liquor, the state mandate percentage increase for State’s Attorney, Public Defender, and Sheriff was approved. A new logo was approved and will be used for the county.  Regional Radio News is awaiting a copy of that image. A special use permit approval for a 180-day extension for Hickory Point Solar was approved, along with a Cybersecurity Extension for $419. 

The next county board meeting is set for Tuesday, August 19th.  Chairman Bryan Sharp along with the rest of the Christian County Board encourage everyone to attend the county fair.
